If harm is done by an agent that has been convicted of the same harm at a previous job the principal might be liable for a negligent retention.

The negligent retention is a case that can be held by the plaintiff against the principal.

The case can be held against him on the basis that he knew that this agent was a violent person and had the tendencies of committing such an offense but still retained him at the job.

If the agent has been convicted of the harm before, doing it again means that he is a violent person and shouldn't be working there.
